Unlock the Torah's wisdom on the perils of harboring hatred and envy, and learn how to transform these destructive emotions into opportunities for personal growth and spiritual fulfillment. Discover why the Torah (Leviticus 19:17) urges against holding grudges and how negative feelings like slander and seeking revenge can spiral into severe consequences, including the significant historical impact of baseless hatred leading to the destruction of the Second Temple. We reveal practical steps for confronting and resolving such emotions, emphasizing the Jewish values of forgiveness and understanding, and how addressing grievances head-on can lead to inner peace and stronger communities.Also, be inspired by a heartwarming story from Jerusalem about a bakery owner whose unwavering faith and perspective turned potential rivalry into an act of kindness. You’ll hear how his belief in divine providence, that his income is predetermined by Hashem on Rosh Hashanah, allowed him to support a former employee's competing business without a hint of animosity. This narrative serves as a powerful reminder of the mitzvah of helping others and maintaining faith in all circumstances, teaching us to embrace life's challenges with love and trust in divine wisdom. Join us for this enriching episode that blends timeless teachings with real-life applications, urging us to cultivate hearts full of love and faith._____________This Episode is dedicated in honor Dovi & Adina on their wedding tonight!!This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on June 17, 2024.Released as Podcast on July 17, 2024_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.
